The company behind music identification app Shazam has just release a list of their top 12 songs predicted to dominate summer 2016.

Their list includes big tracks from a wide range of genres, including pop, hip-hop, and country, ranked based on the total number of Shazams plus the rate at which the number of people Shazaming the tracks is growing.
